Chapter – 84- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The practice of
devotion and worship of Lord Sri Hari to get rid of Thapathraya and mountain-sized sins
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mind, if you
do not take shelter at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari or do not take vows,
austerities, meditation, contemplation, or singing in praise of the virtues of Lord
Sri Hari, who will liberate you from the sufferings and grief of worldly
existence? Who will protect you from the mountain-sized troubles and sins? Worship
of demigods to fulfill your desires and the performance of extraordinarily unusual
spiritual rites may help to achieve happiness for a few days, but it cannot
bring the fruitfullness of life, these kinds of practices and devotion won’t
help you to achieve permanent bliss or it won’t help during the time of death
or welfare afterlife/Paralokasukha, it would shove you to the sixty-four lakh
Yonis/wombs of animals, birds, reptiles, humans, etc. and take birth in air,
water, earth, and sky, and constantly undergo the three kinds of grief/Thapathraya.
The fortunate Jeeva get rid of interest in worldly matters of possession,
richness, wealth, money, fame, children, wife, companion, and relatives, and
live in solitude, they undertake austerities, penance, Swadhyaya, vows,
celibacy, Shama, Dhama, Sathyam, Shaucham, Dhaya, Dhanam, Astheyam, Arjjavam,
Ahimsa, etc. and get rid of impurities of the mind such as Kama, Krodha, Lobha,
Moha, Madha, Masthshcharya, Ahamkara, and Mamakara. These Bhramajjyani’s/liberated
souls constantly contemplate and meditate upon the supreme Bhramam Lord
Shyamsundhar, and ultimately achieve union with the supreme Bhramam, get freed
from the dualities of happiness and sorrow, gain and loss, honor, and disgrace,
good and evil, and wander fearlessly all over the Earth in extreme bliss.”
Jau Hari Bratha Nija Sar Na Dharaigau | Thau Ko Asa Thratha Ju Apuna Kari
Kar Kudava Bakaraugau || Aan Devaki
Bhakthi Bhayi Kari Kotika Kasaba Karaigau
| Sab Che Dhivasa Chari Manaranjjana Anth Kala Bigaraigau || Chaurasi Lakh Joni
Janmi Jaga Jalathala Bhramatha Phiraigau | Sur Sukritha Sevak Soyi Sanchau JO
Syamahi Sumiraigau ||
